About this map

Money sits at a critical junction in the Mississippi Delta landscape, captured here through high-altitude aerial photography. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of the Tallahatchie and the Yalobusha River, which carve deep, rhythmic oxbows and meander scars across the alluvial plain. These watercourses have historically dictated the patterns of agriculture and settlement in the region, with the dark, wooded curves of the riverbanks contrasting sharply against the geometric grid of cleared fields.
